Under immense pressure, Nawaz Sharif announced to make Pathankot inquiry report public.

Vindicating India's stand on involvement of Pakistani establishment behind Pathankot attack in January this year, a senior Pakistani Senator accused the Nawaz Sharif government of patronising terrorists. PPP Senator Farhatullah Babar on Friday put the government in the dock over Pathankot attack.

Babar accused the Sharif government of misleading the upper house by deliberately concealing information about the terror attack in which three security personnel lost their lives while six Pakistani terrorists were killed.

The questions asked by PPP Senator Babar were not answered by the government. Babar had raised these questions four months ago as well. He lashed out at the government for deferring the questions each time he raised.

Under pressure from the opposition and cornered by India, Pakistan's Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif later announced that the Pathankot probe report would be made public. Inside Senate, Minister of State for Interior and Narcotics Balighur Rehman denied hiding any information from the House.
